Intramural Play To Begin "We will try this year to turn out the best collegiate intramural sports program in the state," said Joe Grugan, director of intramural athletics, when asked about this year's plans. Already elaborate plans have been made and the program is ex pected to open October 1, with the playing of the first volley ball game. After volley ball will come football, November 1. The university pool will be open for general recreational purposes from 4 to 6 p. m. Tuesday and Friday and from 7 to 9 p. m. every Wednesday night. The activities this year are ex pected to attract even more par ticipants than last year when 1700 men took part in the program. Instructor Grugan pointed out that one of the prime purposes of the program is to reach everyone on the campus and he urges every one, freshmen ini particular, to participate. This year, for the first time in the history of the university, the intramural staff has published a booklet wvith all pertinent facts about the program included. About 1,000 of these booklets will be dis tributed throughout the campus. To handle this expanded proj ect, men are needed to officiate at the various games and anyone in terested should contact Grugan at his office in the gym. Teams entering the volley ball program should also send a repre sentative by this office to pick up an entrance blank. Marquette Team Will Fly For First Time The Marquette University foot ball squad, forbidden by school au thorities to travel by air in the past, was granted permission to fly to Columbia this fall for its November 3 night game with Caro lina. Coach Lisle Blackbourn's pro teges also probably will make two other plane trips this season. The Gamecocks beat Marquette 6-3 last year. |A LL'S , f Students' in~g Apparel me the Students oILumDia Duke Blue Favorite 0 In Season By BOB KEDERICK Tomorrow afternoon at Carolina Stadium the Gamecocks will open their 1950 football season when they throw their football talents at the power-laden Duke Blue Devils. The highly touted Blue Devils come to town led by their ace tail back Billy Cox. Cox, All-Southern back, was ranked ninth in the na tion in total offense last year. He will spearhead the dangerous Duke passing attack in addition .to his duties as number one ball carrier. Of Cox, Carolina Coach Rex En right says, "He is probably one of the greatest backs in the country today." The Gamecocks will counter with the celebrated one-two punch of the "Chicago Comet" Steve Wadiak and the "Bouncing" Bishop Strick land, two of the better backs in collegiate football today. The game will probably feature the aerial attack of the Blue Devils against the ground offensive of Carolina. The Dukes have been established the pre-game favorite by a two-touchdown margin. Efforts will be pointed toward stopping the overhead game of the Blue Devils. Cox has two very dependable receivers in Souchak and the speedster "Piney" Field. Pass defense has been the key note of the past few practice ses sions. The defensive backfield will probably find Bayard Pickett, junior from Sullivan's Island, at the safety position, Blackie Kin cAid, junior from Ansted, W. Va., and Lockhart McLendon, Darling ton senior at halfbacks, with Harry Jabbusch and Ashley Phillips back ing up the line. The forward part of the Game cock defenses has Dave Sparks, 225 pounds of All-State guard on the left, and Roy Skinner, 195 pounder from Sumter, at right guard. Don Early, 200-pound sophomore, will team with Hugh Merck at the tackles. Wilbur New man, the only experienced end on the Gamecock squad will be on the left flank. Dick Phiel, sophomore BEFORE YOU& .. .you car AFTER YOU S2 .. .you has WHILE YOU S? any other cig smokers say: TI3 Devils 14. ver Gamne< Opener Tc from Lorain, Ohio, will play the right end. Offensively the Gamecocka should offer the Blue Devils many, many thorns in the side. The ground game of the Carolina back field has been tested and found true. Stout Steve Wadiak, leading ground gainer of the Southern Conference last year, will team with All-State and second team All-Conference Bishop Strickland to give the Gamecocks as good a running game as can be desired. Ed Pasky will pilot the club from the quarterback slot. Pasky, formerly one of the best defensive backs in the Southern Conference, seems to have everything but the actual game experience. Vince Gargano, the silent man from Brooklyn, and mammoth Bob King will be the guard combina tion on the offensive team. Lamar Collie, student body president, will start at the offensive left tackle berth, while Paul Stephens leads the way for the backs from his right tackle position.
